  • the invention is particularly, but not exclusively, applicable to in communications apparatus in which the communications signal is combined with a signal derived from the local oscillator.
  • Local oscillators are used in various electronic circuits to generate a signal to be combined with a communication signal. Such is the case, for example, in direct-conversion receivers and transmitters, in which the communication signal is converted in a single step between communications frequency and base-band frequency.

  • Such direct-conversion receivers and transmitters enable a high degree of integration of the circuits, for example by avoiding the need for band-pass filters, as are required in heterodyne receivers and transmitters.

  • prior art receivers of this kind have suffered from the formation of a very large unwanted dc component interfering with the base-band signal. This dc component is formed largely by leakage from the local oscillator being received (or transmitted) at the receiver (at the transmitter) aerial together with the wanted signal, and also by offsets of the amplifiers and mixers in the receivers.
  • Voltage Controlled Oscillator and mixed with the communication signal is a multiple M of the communication radio frequency.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil oscillateur local comprenant des terminaux de signal de communication (LNA IN, LNA INX; RF OUT, RF OUTN) pour un signal de communication, en particulier dans un récepteur ou dans un émetteur, et un oscillateur à fréquence commandée (204; 404) permettant de produire un signal d'oscillateur local. Ledit oscillateur local comprend également un générateur de fréquence de référence (210; 410), et une boucle de retour (208;408) permettant de sélectionner et de régler la fréquence (fVCO) du signal de l'oscillateur local, par rapport à la fréquence (fxtal) dudit signal de fréquence de référence. Un premier diviseur de fréquence (205; 405) permet de diviser la fréquence du signal de l'oscillateur local par un premier facteur de division (M) pour produire un signal de conversion, la fréquence (FILO) dudit signal de conversion étant au moins approximativement égale à la fréquence (fRF) du signal de communication, et des moyens de conversion (202,203; 402, 403), réagissant au signal de conversion permettent d'effectuer une conversion entre ledit signal de communication et un signal de bande de base. Un second diviseur de fréquence (206;406) divise la fréquence du signal d'oscillateur local par un second facteur de division (N), et est connecté au niveau de la boucle de retour, le premier facteur de division (N) étant différent du second facteur de division (M), et les rapports entre ledit premier facteur de division et ledit second facteur de division (M/N, N/M) étant fractionnels.
